Warp1 Warp a buffer with a time pointer
Inspired by Chad Kirby's SuperCollider2 Warp1 class, which was inspired by Richard Karpen's sndwarp for CSound. A granular time strecher and pitchshifter.
Warp1.ar(numChannels, bufnum, pointer, freqScale, windowSize, envbufnum, overlaps,
windowRandRatio, interp, mul, add)
numChannels - the number of channels in the soundfile used in bufnum.
bufnum - the buffer number of a mono soundfile.
pointer - the position in the buffer. The value should be between 0 and 1, with 0 being the begining
of the buffer, and 1 the end.
freqScale- the amount of frequency shift. 1.0 is normal, 0.5 is one octave down, 2.0 is one octave up.
Negative values play the soundfile backwards.
windowSIze - the size of each grain window.
envbufnum - the buffer number containing a singal to use for the grain envelope. -1 uses a built-in
Hanning envelope.
overlaps - the number of overlaping windows.
windowRandRatio - the amount of randomness to the windowing function. Must be between 0 (no
randomness) to 1.0 (probably to random actually)
interp - the interpolation method used for pitchshifting grains. 1 = no interpolation. 2 = linear.
4 = cubic interpolation (more computationally intensive).
Examples:
s.boot;
(
var winenv;
// a custom envelope - not a very good one, but you can hear the difference between this
// and the default
winenv = Env([0, 1, 0], [0.5, 0.5], [8, -8]);
b = Buffer.read(s, "sounds/a11wlk01-44_1.aiff");
z = Buffer.sendCollection(s, winenv.discretize, 1);
SynthDef(\warp, {arg buffer = 0, envbuf = -1;
var out, pointer, filelength, pitch, env, dir;
// pointer - move from beginning to end of soundfile over 15 seconds
pointer = Line.kr(0, 1, 15);
// control pitch with MouseX
pitch = MouseX.kr(0.5, 2);
env = EnvGen.kr(Env([0.001, 1, 1, 0.001], [0.1, 14, 0.9], 'exp'), doneAction: 2);
out = Warp1.ar(1, buffer, pointer, pitch, 0.1, envbuf, 8, 0.1, 2);
Out.ar(0, out * env);
}).send(s);
)
// use built-in env
x = Synth(\warp, [\buffer, b, \envbuf, -1])
// switch to the custom env
x.set(\envbuf, z)
x.set(\envbuf, -1);
x.free;
